So what's your opinion ?   bing vs Google?   :58-

eh. It's okay.

Of course, the first search that I ever performed in Bing was "badda".  I just had to. :5-

I've been using the bing cashback to get discounts on e-bay purchases for a while.  It's the only time I use it (whenever I need to buy something from e-bay).

Rick,

Thanks (??) for the Tip, Now I will have to buy something in the near future to verify this.  :25- :25- :25- Like I really need to buy someting!  :25- :60- :60-

I guess that this must be similar to the LIVE SEARCH cashback bonus when you search on MSN?? Learned that trick when I searched for a stereo. J&R had the lowest price on the net, and Live Search gave a 7% cashback, so it was an awesome deal... I almost thought it was a too good to be true thing. Stereo was backorded for a couple months!  :30- Luckily it was no big rush! Saved over $100 over the local Fry's, and the freight was free!  :3-

Yeah thanks Rick K+!

live search cashback was renamed to bing, it's the same thing.

I should mention that the cashback level varies from time to time.  During "Glorious times" it has gone as high as 35% (with a $200 dollar limit per transaction).  There is a limit of X purchases per account and it varies by offer.  You need to make sure you don't go over.  I bought one of my Mac Mini's with a 25% discount, wound up paying like $325 for a new mini.  For those who have never done it, you need to sign up to the bing cashback site and then at the MSN home page you do a search for an item typically people look for on e-bay.  I usually put something like "cheap PS3" and typicall in the top link results like the 1st screenshot, then when you click on the link you get the second screen, notice the 8% banner.

I want to pre-apologize for all the money people are going to throw away judiciously spend on e-bay following this post.  My disclaimer should read:

This post is for informational purposes only and in no way does the author endorse the addictive quality of buying flea-bay slot stuff at discount prices.  :79- :79- :79-

uh....you selling playstations now Rick? :72-

yes, selling everything to buy the next slot, and the ever so elusive "last kit I'll ever need"  :97- :97- :97- :97- :97-

Just kidding, I just use "cheap PS3" because those keyword searches always bring up the rebate link on e-bay.  You can also use Xbox, wii, iphone, [whatever hot device people are buying], etc.

lol...I agree...there IS  no " last kit I'll ever need".... :72-

Oh man that is depressing! Hopefully there will never be a last kit needed!!
